president obama had the courage to back him. and it turned out to be successful. in comparison, if i may say so, with what the europeans have done with their banks, where nobody knows what the numbers are, they apply a stress test that was meaningless and here we are some number of years later, they were still, and rightly so, enormous questions about many of the european banks. i think tim has done an excellent job. >> do you push for enough regulation? people look at compensation on wall street and say it's still too much. >> well i don't think that compensation was the purview of tim. you could argue about compensation one way or another and argue what role it played. that's an issue that the policy community is going to have to deal with going forward. but, it wasn't central to what he had to do. >> do you think compensation played a role? obviously the other critique on you has been that you were paid a huge amount of money, $100 million plus. no one's ever asked me and i was wondering if i could, did you get to keep all that money? a lot of it was in stock.
